This is my husband’s second one. He loves it

Excellent for the small yard that I needed it for. Would recommend.

Bought it to edge driveway, sidewalk, and around flower beds. It fit my Husqvarna string trimmer for which I found it difficult to find an edger attachment. Works as advertised

Trimmer works great, holds a good charge

I bought this for my 78 year old father for Christmas. He loves it. It’s not too heavy for him and it has much better power than his previous one. Even the neighbors came over to look at it and were impressed with its capabilities.
Allen Durgan (verified owner) –
Power is great, cut right through weeds and never died after 30 minutes. You can’t beat ryobi quality versus price
Bertrand Schaden (verified owner) –
Battery is a bit heavy and requires a little extra effort to install and remove. Otherwise a great product.

It was a gift for my son and he said it worked great it is the best one he has ever had. I bought the other one for my Grandson who requested that particular model and he loves it

My husband was excited to receive this as birthday gift. He needed to replace a broken gas trimmer and really likes the convenience of a battery operated version. He intends to continue to replace gas run tools with battery-operated Ryobi versions going forward so the batteries can be interchangeable.

Not has heavy as my Dewalt weed wacker but with a stronger battery and I was able to bring the handle closer for me I am short 5′ 1 ” and it easier to handle than the Dewalt I have at my other home.

I bought this tool toward the end of the season. I have only used the serrated blade weed cutter. It works great. We have a hidden section of the yard that had gotten out of control with big gnarly weeds. The Ryobi tool cut them down with ease. I also used the edge attachment and was happy with it. This is our second Ryobi weed whacker. I prefer this newer one because the older one was difficult for me to convert between weed cutter and edger. We really like the big battery that holds a charge for a long time. Our only complaint is that the instructions for assembly are nearly useless. My husband and son were able to assemble it for me. A person without good mechanical skills would likely have trouble making it work.

My gas trimmer is AWOL. My sister bought the same unit, and, based on her experience, and the great sale price, I was sold. It was easy to assemble. With the 40 volt lithium battery it has plenty of power for residential use. It lasted for a very long time. Coming with spare string was a pleasant bonus. The only negative mark it gets is for omitting a shoulder strap. I liked it so much I bought the matching leaf blower.

The Ryobi 40-Volt trimmer is a solid piece of equipment for yardwork. It is heavy duty, lasts about 40 minutes with non-stop use and has the power of a gas engine, without the mess of oil or gas! Has power to cut through thick weeds and I do use it for edging as well – does its job and then some. Downfalls of this equipment is that it is bloody heavy on the battery end! There is no easy way of balancing the trimmer, and after a while it does start to strain arms and backs if you are not careful. The charger included does its job well enough, takes about 3 hours to charge from fully drained to full again. Changing the string is easy and includes the tool for faster wrapping. I would get this again as I don’t have to haul around extension cords or gas anywhere and the battery is interchangeable with the rest of the the 40-Volt line by Ryobi.

I have used it once so far and seems to function very well with plenty of power for my yard weeds and grasses.
Kaleb Stroman (verified owner) –
Does a great job. It is awkward because of the size, but I bought a harness which does the trick.

Such good service thank you so much

Good job of trimming. Could use two wheels for better stability.
